Article Synopsis
- Patients with abducent nerve palsy are primarily treated by conservative medical specialists, with ENT surgeons often involved when complications arise.
- Most cases are temporary and linked to neurologic or vascular issues, but rare origins like skull base fractures, inflammation, or tumors can require surgical intervention.
- In a study of 15 patients treated by an ENT surgeon, two-thirds with inflammatory complications fully recovered, while those with tumors showed poor recovery, highlighting the need for experienced care in more severe cases.
